In this addition to the New York Times bestselling series, learn
how incredible activists made the public aware of AIDS and spurred
medical breakthroughs. In the early 1980s, the first cases of a
devastating and fatal new disease appeared, a disease that at first
struck only gay men and was later identified as HIV/AIDS. It was
the beginning of what became a worldwide health crisis that the US
government ignored for years and that unfairly heightened prejudice
against the LGBTQ+ community. To this day, the AIDS Crisis
continues to disproportionately affect both the LGBTQ+ community
and people of color. Nico Medina has written an accurate and
affecting history of a terrible time, spotlighting the heroic
efforts of AIDS activists who fought for medical research and new
medicines, for proper health care for patients, and for
compassionate recognition of people with AIDS.

chips, some carrots, and an apple. Once a week she tucks in a slice
of her special lemon pound cake. Rafael saw Kevin, a new kid in his
class, sneak his lunch bag from underneath his desk and tuck it in
his backpack. But how can he do something about the theft without

before your fists," Rafael bides his time, but other kids' lunches
are disappearing,too. On an errand with his mom, Rafael sees Kevin
carrying a bundle of laundry into a motel room, and his mom tells
him Kevin's family might be one of the families who lost their
homes in the recent wildfires. Rafael rethinks his anger. The next
day, instead of accusing Kevin, Rafael invites him to share his
lunch, letting Kevin know he's been caught, but offering friendship
as well as lunch.

Breathe Like a Bear is a beautifully illustrated collection of
movements and breathing exercises designed to teach kids techniques
for managing their bodies, breath, and emotions. Best of all, they
can be performed anywhere: in the backseat of a car, at home, or
even at a child's deskat school. Based on Kira Willey's
Parents'Choice GOLD Award-winning CD, Mindful Moments for Kids,
this is the first book of its kind and is the perfect tool to help
children and parents develop a fun and consistent mindfulness
practice.
From New York Times bestselling adult author Joseph Fink comes a
wickedly fun middle grade novel about a Halloween-obsessed girl
named Esther Gold, who goes out trick-or-treating for one last
year, only to find her town under the thrall of a mysterious
presence. Esther Gold loves Halloween more than anything in the
world. So she is determined to go trick-or-treating again this year
despite the fact that her parents think she is officially too old.
Esther has it all planned out, from her costume to her
candy-collecting strategy. But when the night rolls around,
something feels . . . off. No one is answering their door. The moon
is an unnatural shade of orange. Strange children wander the
streets, wearing creepy costumes that might not be costumes at all.
And it seems like the only people besides Esther who are awake to
see it all are her best friend, her school bully, and her grown-up
next-door neighbor. Together, this unlikely crew must find a way to
lift the curse that has been placed upon their small town before
it's too late. Because someone is out to make sure Halloween never
comes to an end. And even Esther doesn't want to be trapped in this
night forever.
